in case you hadn't heard, FPSRussia's weapons manager was found in his home, executed. Tied to a chair with a bullet through the back of his head. all of his guns were apparently left untouched so people are starting to murmur about anti-gun agenda. doesn't make any sense to me but it's worth mentioning.

i had a dream last night that i confronted a group of people who were very anti-gun. didn't really expect to dream about that. there was a lot of yelling from them when i brought up any fact or statistic that didn't support their viewpoint, so i ended up just dreaming about getting drunk instead.

"The president is going to act," said Biden, giving some comments to the press before a meeting with victims of gun violence. "There are executives orders, there's executive action that can be taken. We haven't decided what that is yet. But we're compiling it all with the help of the attorney general and the rest of the cabinet members as well as legislative action that we believe is required."

This executive order crap is getting out of hand. Screw checks and balances and the constitution they were written to protect.

It's for the main-spring for the bolt carrier. AR rifles that use a direct gas system need it to keep the bolt from moving too fast. On a rifle its tucked inside the stock, but you see that on the AR-pistols.

Ahhhhh...thank you! I know exactly what you're talking about, but I'd never seen an AR taken apart and didn't really know the workings.

John Noveske was killed in a car wreck on Jan 4th...

News in the last 30 minutes or so is that Biden came out of the "Gun control" committee meeting talking about executive orders...

These guys are really demonstrating that they believe the only real use for the Constitution is as toilet paper (at least when they're in charge)...

All of this smacks of politicization. No one is stupid enough to try and get rid of all guns, they know there are too many people who are vocal that won't sit for that. However, if you present (even as a threat) the possibility of a complete ban, then follow that up with something lesser (that was the aim all along) chances are people will accept that without question and pat themselves on the back as winning.

I do have to say that it amazes me with all of the talk on forums about how folks are not giving the government their guns and not registering etc, they will post pictures of their acquisitions. Do you not think the Feds can access these things to find out who has what?

Thank god for private sales. But if they want them they are gonna have to get them from people. That will be ... messy.

Anyone who has ever tried to take a picture through a scope, knows it's not the easiest thing to do, and generally looks like shit. Well, my picture is no different. Image through the scope in this picture looks terrible, but you can actually see quite a bit through it. It does fish eye, but it's not as bad to deal with as you might think. Because the russians used multiple tubes in this scope to pick up light (Reason why it is so big), even though it is rated as Gen1 Night Vision, it far out performs any single tubed Gen 1 I have ever played around with.

I'm actually surprised with how well the Hero3 does with the low light around the scope.

NRA whitehouse meeting was just a dog and pony show to make it look like they wanted to talk. Crap is about to get real.

Statement From the National Rifle Association of America Regarding Today's White House Task Force Meeting

Posted on January 10, 2013
Print Email Share

Fairfax, Va. &ndash; The National Rifle Association of America is made up of over 4 million moms and dads, daughters and sons, who are involved in the national conversation about how to prevent a tragedy like Newtown from ever happening again. We attended today's White House meeting to discuss how to keep our children safe and were prepared to have a meaningful conversation about school safety, mental health issues, the marketing of violence to our kids and the collapse of federal prosecutions of violent criminals.

We were disappointed with how little this meeting had to do with keeping our children safe and how much it had to do with an agenda to attack the Second Amendment. While claiming that no policy proposals would be &ldquo;prejudged,&rdquo; this Task Force spent most of its time on proposed restrictions on lawful firearms owners - honest, taxpaying, hardworking Americans. It is unfortunate that this Administration continues to insist on pushing failed solutions to our nation's most pressing problems. We will not allow law-abiding gun owners to be blamed for the acts of criminals and madmen. Instead, we will now take our commitment and meaningful contributions to members of congress of both parties who are interested in having an honest conversation about what works - and what does not.
